This talent for shooting seems to run in the family. According to the BBC, Tomar's daughter, Seema, was the first Indian woman to win a medal at the Rifle and Pistol World Cup in 2010 and one of her granddaughters, Neetu Solanki, is an international shooter who has represented India in countries like Hungary and Germany.

Both women say that Tomar has inspired them to excel.

"She is amazing," Seema said of her mother. "If she can do it then so can we. She showed us that anything is possible. She has helped so many of us improve our lives."
